Chorus: Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, to the cross where Thou hast died. Draw me nearer nearer, nearer blessed Lord to thy precious bleeding side.

2. Consecrate me now, to thy service Lord, by the power of grace Divine, Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope. And my will be lost in Thine.

3. O, the pure delight of a single hour, that before Thy throne I spend when I kneel in prayer and with Thee my God, I commune as friend with friend.

4. There are depths of love that I may not know. Till I cross the narrow sea. There are heights of joy that I may not reach, till I rest in peace with Thee.
